Sorry everyone for not blogging for a while. I've been hitting the workouts pretty hard. I have started a lot of different stuff with my rehab and i've been working out twice a day. We have a thing going on between me and Sergio Rodrigez to see who can get the most workouts in a month. Last month he broke Joel Pryzbillas' record of 32 workouts and had 33. So this month I made it my mission to break that in 28 days this month. I can't have Sergio have the lifting record for the Trailblazers.

And speaking of Oden, Eddie Johnson writes on the Suns website that Portland's center-in-waiting is one of the reasons Phoenix traded for Shaq:

The Portland Trail Blazers and the Greg Oden factor

The Blazers are the team of the future. If Greg Oden lives up to his promise and LaMarcus Aldridge and All-Star Brandon Roy continue to grow, the Suns will have another couple of big bodies to deal with over the next few years.

Shaq may have the girth to bang with (or push around) Oden, but it's going to be fun watching Oden run circles around Kazaam.
